Vision

Every WRS Student is Worthy, Resilient and Selfless

Mission

Nurturing Self-Directed, Confident and Caring Learners

Philosophy

We believe that each student is unique and whose potential can be maximised so as to contribute selflessly to society. In line with our culture of learning, the school focusses on holistic, values-driven, student development programmes to engage the hearts and minds of our learners. We are committed to providing our students with a safe and conducive learning environment to pursue their interests and strive for excellence. Staff and students are encouraged to live out the school motto: Work hard and smart, Rise to every challenge, Serve the school and community

Sdp

We adopt a Values-based and Student-centric focussed curriculum with our Strategic Thrusts of Engaged Learning and Character Excellence as the common threads that bind both the academic and co-curricular programmes in WRS. True to our philosophy that every student is unique and can contribute to society, we strive to inculcate critical thinking and future-ready skills. The school's Applied Learning Programme, The Robotics Education & Enterprise [TREE], instils in students a curiosity to learn through experimentation, questioning, problem-solving and risk-taking. Dedicated to providing authentic and engaging experiences, TREE integrates learning across disciplines such as Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM), and develops in students the ability to make connections with real-life problems. As an extension of learning and early exposure to possible post-secondary courses of study and future work opportunities, the school is offering Applied Subjects such as Mobile Robotics to Upper Secondary students. With an emphasis on building confidence and strengthening effective communication, programmes such as Drama-in-Curriculum and Career Presentation Programmes are introduced to develop Oracy and Self-Confidence through creative expression. Our Learning for Life Programme, Student Leadership Development through Involvement in the Community, aims to instil the purpose of caring for and leading others in the community through their involvement in community outreach activities. By working with partners, both locally and overseas, the programme is designed to help students better appreciate what they have and live out the school values of 'Responsibility, Respect & Resilience' and motto 'Serve the School and Community'. As part of our Resilience programme, our Sec 2 students attend a CCE camp during which they are given opportunities to demonstrate and hone their SE competencies and our Sec 3 students learn about team challenges and adaptation through OBS.
